Chairman of the board of Directors of the KHL and president of CSKA Moscow, Vyacheslav Fetisov, has decided to donate all his sports awards, including his Stanley Cup rings, to a hockey museum which will be established in Vladivostok, the ITAR-TASS news agency reports. The concert and sports complex where the ice hockey museum is located will also be named after Fetisov.

The 53-year-old Fetisov is the owner of a record number of titles and championships in world sport. He’s the honored Master of Sport, a member of the Hockey Hall of Fame, a two-time Olympic champion, seven-time World Championship winner, and a ten-time European hockey champion. He’s won the World Cup and the USSR championship with CSKA. He was honored as the best player in Europe three times, as the best player in the Soviet Union. He was named the best defenseman on the World Championship team seven times.

Update: Chris found the initial report, which provides more information about the museum’s construction, if you’re interested.
